When you are in the food business, there is one person who always needs to be impeccably groomed – that would be your lead cook, the chef. Most restaurants associate themselves with the resident chef and during the olden days, the restaurant’s logo and name often had a picture or a caricature of the chef on it.
The chef we usually picture ourselves with is one who wears an all-white ensemble with a big white puffy hat. Nowadays, black aprons are as used as white ones, for practicality’s sake. A chef’s job is most always messy, and black would hide spills and stains very well.

Now there are a lot of chef apparel styles available. iD by Landau carries a complete line of apparel, even including chef pants, for the stylish chef. Chef pants need to have elastic waistbands, concealed side pockets, lightweight materials, and strong construction to ensure the trousers are built to last under repeated washings .
There is a collection of chef white jackets for ladies and men, and single and double-breasted designs to suit the needs of casual and a more formal attire.
What exactly do chefs need when it comes to their attire? From a sushi chef’s jacket in black with front pockets for utensils to full-size executive chef jackets with detailed piping for cuffs and collar and black pearl buttons. They also have jackets made from Coolvent fabric that moisture and heat away from the body as much as possible.
